Holiday

Gentle Readers

I hope you all enjoyed your Christmas holiday. We spent a short time in Carlsbad at the in-laws, returning Saturday night, and are now in laid back mode for the week, as everyone is off from work and school.

We attended a party at TCG's house Sunday. As he's hitched to a poohbah in the liquor industry, these parties are always well stocked in addition to being cordial events. On the way in, my wife told college boy to be sure to give people hugs. She and I agree, for the most part, on parenting methods, but I'm dismayed she's trying to turn SB1 into a hugger.

The next happening is a Mexican themed soiree at #1's house for New Years. The TCGs will be missing that one as they have tickets to the Rose Bowl but we're looking forward to seeing the rest of the FC gang. Last week, along with The Execs, we played guinea pigs for #1's drink experiments in preparation for the party. We were rewarded with dinner for being his subjects.

So who else thinks Charlie Sheen needs to spend several years in the slam?
